Since the back is not magnetic, is there a solution to put a magnet on the back of the Tahoe?

What are you wanting to do? What kind of magnet are you talking about?

Could you take the inner panel off and stick some magnetic material to the back side of the body panel in the area you’re wanting to put a magnet?

Definitely not that important, I was just surprised that it wasn't magnetic. Just a typical magnet for the kids baseball program. I'm not going to worry about it, I'll see if they have a sticker I can put on the back window.

Gotcha.

Reminds me of the time I was test driving trucks at a local dealer. He gave me a magnetic dealer plate and set out a bunch of keys for various trucks.

Went to put it in the back of an 2016 F-150 and it just fell to the ground. Took me a couple tries figure out the tailgate is aluminum. Had to put it on the bumper.

Same thing we ran into renting tractors from Penske. Our magnetic DOT stickers became useless.
